baang-e-takbir to aisi hai 'baqaa' sina-kharaash — Baqaullah 'Baqa'

ishq mein bu hai kibriyaai ki
aashiqi jis ne ki khudaai ki

bulbul se kahaa gul ne kar tark mulaaqaatein
ghunche ne girah baandhin jo gul ne kahin baatein

ishq ne mansab likhe jis din miri taqdir mein
daagh ki naqadi mili sahraa milaa jaagir mein

chhoD kar kucha-e-mai-khaana taraf masjid ke
main to divaana nahin huun jo chalun hosh ki raah

ulfat mein tiri ai but-e-be-mehr-o-mohabbat
aayaa hamein ik haath se taali kaa bajaanaa

kal ke din jo gird mai-khaane ke phirte the kharaab
aaj masjid mein jo dekhaa saahab-e-sajjaada hain

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

kahaan milegi misaal meri sitamgari ki
ki main gulaabon ke zakhm kaanTon se si rahaa huun

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai

gul kiyaa jis ne vo thaa aur magar
shama ne shikva havaaon se kiyaa

teraa ghar aur meraa jangal bhigtaa hai saath saath
aisi barsaatein ki baadal bhigtaa hai saath saath

gul ho mahtaab ho aaina ho khurshid ho miir
apnaa mahbub vahi hai jo adaa rakhtaa ho
